Missing export for functions and getFuncitons

[REQUIRED] Step 2: Describe your environment

Windows, Node.js Firebase SDK version: latest firebase-admin = 10.2.0 Firebase Product: Cloud Functions (+ Auth, Firestore,…) Node.js version: 16 NPM version: 8.1.0

[REQUIRED] Step 3: Describe the problem

I want to use TaskQueue with Cloud Functions as described here https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/task-functions, but neither firebase-functions SDK v3.21.1 nor firebase-admin SDK v10.2.0 has export for all described functions. There is missing export for getFunctions in firebase-admin v10.2.0. (Why is not TaskQueue related stuff present in firebase-functions SDK and we have to use two SDK in CF…that’s another question.)

Steps to reproduce:

What happened? How can we make the problem occur? This could be a description, log/console output, etc.

Relevant Code:

import {getFunctions} from 'firebase-admin' - this will never work

@dastrouvy upgrading to firebase-admin to latest fixed the issue.

Hi @gitdast ,

You are correct, the right way to import functions types is

import { getFunctions, TaskOptions } from 'firebase-admin/functions'

The default region is us-central1, but you can specify a different region in the getFunctions().taskQueue() API by passing it in the function resource name.

getFunctions().taskQueue('locations/{location}/functions/{functionName}')

See the reference docs for more information: https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/admin/node/firebase-admin.functions.functions#functionstaskqueue
